It's a dress! No, it's a jumpsuit with a flowing train.
Looks like gowns are soon going to be passe.

This is what one gets when they combine jumpsuits with thigh-high slits? Quite daring, isn't it?
#4. Frills will never go out of style

Nor will denim jackets. We are totally crushing over these cool drool-worthy separates.
#5. Net booties are cool :)

Hate wearing socks with knee-length skirts? Then net booties are not such a bad idea.
#6. Say hi to 'bishop sleeves'
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion7.jpg?w=670&h=900)
Looks like the Indian fashion industry is really in the mood to experiment.
Exaggerated sleeves were the flavour of last season and now designers are giving a huge nod to classic Victorian-style sleeves.
#7. Care for a criss-cross choli?

The perfect solution for someone going traditional yet wanting to show some skin.
#8. Sheer capris are not so bad :)
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion9.jpg?w=670&h=900)
Capris are back and no one wants to stick to the old boring ones :)
#9. Harem pants are back :)
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion1.jpg?w=670&h=900)
Harem pants made a comeback on the ramp this season.
#10. Asymmetrical anarkalis are in vogue
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion2.jpg?w=670&h=900)
The old good anarkali is back with a twist -- the perfect excuse for someone wanting to hide those love handles :)
#11. Ditch petticoats, make way for tights instead
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion3.jpg?w=670&h=900)
Need we say more?
#12. Sheer and Benarasi weaves look effortless together
![LFW](//im.rediff.com/getahead/2017/aug/28fashion6.jpg?w=670&h=900)
Just because you're wearing a Benarasi lehenga doesn't mean that you got to opt for similar fabric! Throw in some sheer and you have a winning combination there.
